"It was an immense privilege to lead the Conservative Party for more than a decade and the country for over six years as prime minister. I am looking forward to having the opportunity to explain the decisions I took and why I took them. I will be frank about what worked and what didn't," 50-year-old Cameron said in a statement.
There is no title for the memoir so far but its publisher, William Collins - a HarperCollins imprint, expects it to hit the bookshelves sometime in 2018.
Cameron has said he would explain the decisions he made and admit "what worked and what didn't".
His autobiography, expected to fetch him thousands of pounds, will cover major political developments including Brexit, the Scottish referendum and the bombing of Libya.
Cameron had initially indicated he would carry on as an MP on the back benches of Parliament but stepped down from that post as well last month.
Cameron's former seat of Witney was last week retained by the Conservative party in a by-election but with a slashed from Cameron's more than 25,000 to just 5,702.
